Microsoft Teases Surprises For Gamescom
Gamescom is just a week and a half away, and Microsoft is already teasing surprises. The show kicks off on August 11 in Cologne, Germany, and you can check out the action from home.
Microsoft and Activision are teaming up for the Call of Duty multiplayer reveal, live from Cologne. We’ll be reporting live from there, and also from Microsoft’s press briefing on August 12. Microsoft will also be streaming through Xbox.com, the Xbox One Twitch app, and on Windows Phone if you want to keep up with things.
The Call of Duty multiplayer event will take place at 10 a.m. Pacific / 1 p.m. Eastern on Monday, August 11. The press briefing will be held at 5 a.m. Pacific / 8 a.m. Eastern on Tuesday, August 12.
We know that Quantum Break, Forza Horizon 2, Sunset Overdrive, and more will be present. And we’re looking forward to seeing what tricks are up the Xbox One sleeves.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
